What do you see as valuable and does it determine your identity? If we let the Lord search us, often we will find that we place a wrong focus on temporal things – our job, our position, our possessions, even our clothes! God desires us to be free from the bondage of an earthly mindset and have our focus set on eternity.
At the heart of this command is the question: will I have an eternal mindset or will I have a temporal mindset? Our mindset will determine what we see is valuable (i.e., what we treasure). In this command we will explore Jesus’ encouragement to invest our lives in that which cannot be destroyed or taken away.
